The effect of the aquatic contaminants bisphenol-A and PCB-95 on the zebrafish lateral line
Abstract
Bisphenol-A (BPA) is toxic to sensory hair cells in the zebrafish lateral line. BPA likely damages hair cells by inducing oxidative stress. BPA attenuates hair cell regeneration in this innately regenerative system. PCB-95 was not toxic to developing or mature lateral line hair cells.
